Suggest Medicine To Prevent Pregnancy After Intercourse

Hi i had unprotected sex the third day into my ovulation cycle on august 21. I can t afford to buy the plan B so the evening of august 22 I took 2 pills and 6 hours later I took 2 more pills and 12 hours later I took 2 more pills. The brand of the birth control was Minastrin 24fe. Do u think this will be effective enough to prevent pregnancy?

Since you have already taken it, wait for a week to do the pregnancy test.
then you will find out what the result is. this is not the standard hormone pill given for emergency contraception. Use condom for now
